I had hope that the Republican party would at least get along in the new administration. Well.... all those hopes are gone.
No. I don't blame Paul Ryan. I would like to. I really would. I really really would.... but its not his fault.
The fact is. The Republicans have to get the votes of at least 2 moderate to liberal Republicans in the Senate. They might be able to get a moderate democrat vote from WVA. Maybe....
There is NO WAY, the supposed "Freedom Caucus" can get what they want. NO WAY. Its impossible....
Trump knows this. Anyone with any sense knows this. If the Republicans have to look for more Democrat votes...... the bill is going to get WORSE!!!
I don't like most of the purposed "Ryan Care" bill, but at least saves money that can be used in tax reform.
Yes. Its a dirty compromise...... but that is what Congress is all about. Compromise.
The Republican party is acting entirely stupid..... They are going to lose this battle. Trump supporters may not like the legislation but Obamacare is worse.... and its going to explode on less than 2 years. If not this year. All the insurers are going to leave the exchanges because they can not afford to provide benefits at mandated levels and make money with all the sick people in the pool.
Republicans are proving more and more that they are just down right stupid.
Just reported that it took a vote from Pence to advance a bill that would allow states to reject federal dollars for Planned Parenting....

Take notice "Freedom Caucus"!!!!!!!!!!!
It took Pence to and a Georgia Senator with a walker from recent back surgery to even pass this water downed bill......
Geesh....
